Yeah WASA does give we some kinda water here that tastes like Clorox. I setup a 200 gallon water tank at the side of the house here to collect rain from the roof. Just finished boiling a pot of it, tastes very good indeed like buy water.

Well this is really something else, I just got back from a Chaguanas market run and everything full of water and Mr Rain just keep rolling on.Thus far I have gotten wet at least 4 times for the day since with my work an umbrella only gets in the way.Folks if you have to be outside please exercise caution and patience.

In the ultimate irony, the Water and Sewerage Authority is advising customers that heavy rainfall overnight has resulted in the shutdown of several water treatment plants throughout North Trinidad, due to a number of issues including turbid river conditions, clogged intake screens and power failures.

The affected facilities are expected to return to service when conditions normalize at these locations. In light of this, customers are advised to manage their water use efficiently, as it may take up to 24 hours after restart of operations for the restoration of their scheduled pipe borne water supply.

The Authority wishes to assure customers that the water currently being supplied complies with the Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality of the World Health Organisation and is safe for use.
